Water → 2-tert-Butyl-6-chloro-7-(4-methylpiperazine-1-sulfonyl)-benzooxazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

1.62 ml (11.68 mmol; 1.2 eq) of triethylamine followed by 1.20 ml (10.71 mmol; 1.1 eq) of 1-methylpiperazine were added to a solution of 3.0 g (9.73 mmol; 1.0 eq) of 2-tert-butyl-6-chlorobenzoxazole-7-sulfonyl chloride (commercial ?) in 45 ml of tetrahydrofuran. The reaction medium was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. Water was added and the reaction medium was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phases were combined, dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated. 3.57 g of 2-tert-butyl-6-chloro-7-(4-methylpiperazine-1-sulfonyl)benzooxazole were obtained in the form of a tacky brown foam. Yield=98%.
